Lauki : 1/2 (medium size) or small (grated)
ajvain : 1 tbsp
Turmeric powder : 1 tsp
Ginger garlic and chili paste: 1 tbsp or as per taste
Sugar: 1 tbsp
salt as per taste
For seasoning and garnish:
Oil : 2 tbsp
Mustard seeds : 1 tbsp
asofeteda (hing) : a pinch
Sesame seeds : 1 tbsp
Coriander leaves for garnishing
Recipe:

Tips:

- Vegetable content should be more thn flour to taste best.
